The FLSA requires that most employees receive overtime compensation for hours worked over 40 per week. “Non-exempt” employees are those who are covered by the FLSA’s minimum wage and overtime pay requirements and consequently should receive the minimum wage and overtime pay. However, there are exceptions to this rule; jobs which meet certain requirements are considered “exempt” from the minimum wage and overtime requirements of the FLSA.
